To tub Editor of tiir Hfrald : On last Friday afternoon the young ladies of the Erode.phian society of Albany college held a "Special Autnor" meeting, at which the writer of this had the good fortune to be present. The author to which the young ladies devoted their attention was Shakspearo, and the. play upon which they founded their com ments! criticisms and essays "The .Merchant of Venice." This play they have been study ing under the direction of Mrs. O. S. Pollock, Teacher of elocution and literature in the college, anil was a matter of surprise and con gratulation to note the wonderful advancement of 'he students ! under the instruction of this ac- j complished lady. j While all of the exercises were! highly meritoiious, it is but just ' that, special mention be made of : the essay entitled "Character! Mudy Portia," which was admit- I ably written and read with much grace and ease by Miss Anna Flinn. j Also of the work of Miss Flora i Mason, entitled "Gohho the After- I math." Miss Mason-drew son e : beautiful les.-ons from this un-: promising character, which were i clothed in graceful and uppropri-1 ate language. ' j The young ladies next take no j the tudy of "Macbeth." holding i their ".-oecial Author" meeting : every two weks, with a neous programme everv misi-ella-alternate i week. iS'o lover ot "the immortal bard" could fail to enjoy an hour spent at one of these meetings.
